To Passionately act in building positive
progress for our planet and people.

Powered by the Sholl-Freede family’s passion for creating positive change,  CommonTerra is committed to establishing a more responsible,  equitable and sustainable world.  We magnify the work of organizations devoted to conserving natural resources,  developing innovative alternatives to existing technologies,  and constructing a more inclusive and compassionate future for all the children of our planet.

During the emergency humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, our family foundation, CommonTerra joined forces with Tikva to help successfully bring 300 children and their families out of Ukraine to Romania. This work was especially challenging and impactful during such a time of need. As board members of the World of Children and Tikva, we have dedicated our time and resources to support their humanitarian efforts in Ukraine and continually support their missions to help children in need.

In April 2022, we partnered with Artolution to launch a large-scale mural program for children in the underserved and marginalized community of Watts in South Los Angeles to help raise awareness of diversity and equity. Our volunteering staff gained a deeper understanding of the systemic disparities within our communities. We are creating a long-term plan to foster our new connections within the Watts community.
